Chapter 1431 Repeated testing, the possibility of gaining points!
puff.
It penetrates the flesh, turns black quickly, and then turns into ashes that are blown away by the wind.
At the same time, three guards who rushed up with Somo also encountered such a change.
Everyone looked like they had seen a ghost.
The moment the steel knife penetrates the meat, the blade is contaminated and turns black and gray, as brittle as a carbon rod.
Before they could pull it out with force, it rotted into the flesh and turned into ashes.
The body fluids of these monsters are extremely corrosive. Even if the blade is corroded like this, the wooden handle that is not in contact will break together. The effect is like a white paper that has been ignited. It changes color and becomes soft in an instant.
, it will disperse as soon as you blow it.
No one can understand this change.
Fortunately, the number of wolf dogs in the first wave was not large, only eight in total.
Now, two of them were beaten to death by Somo and three were beaten to death by the guards when they first came into contact. The remaining three are of little use.
Except for the one that was shot at the beginning and was kept by Somo as an experiment, the other two were all hacked to death by the guards who rushed up from behind.
Of course, the cost of this battle was also very serious, as a total of nine weapons were contaminated.
For the Boulder Territory, which does not yet have the ability to mass-produce weapons, this is obviously a huge expenditure.
"Be careful and don't come into direct contact with these monsters."
In order to capture this infected wolf-dog for experiments, Sumo tried several things in succession.
Hemp rope will be polluted into ashes within five seconds of being touched.
Straw rope, same result.
After holding on for about twenty seconds, the wire's hardness dropped sharply and was then contaminated into ashes.
Steel wire lasts longer, and it takes more than a minute to show obvious changes in hardness, but it still cannot escape the end of being contaminated.
During the test, the power of destruction carried by the wolfhound was gradually consumed, and it died silently.
"You can't catch it, you can't touch it. What a hell!"
After testing it for a while, Sumo couldn't help but have a profound understanding of the extent of the damage caused by the death wave disaster.
It is indeed not difficult to simply kill these infected bodies. As long as humans with the blessing of routes do not lack courage, it is basically impossible for early infected bodies to cause a large number of casualties.
The really hard part is the price to pay when dealing with these infections.
If you eliminate an infected body each time, you will have to pay for one or more standard weapons.
Then it won't be long before the major territories will run out of resources and their expenditures will far exceed their incomes.
"Try to see how much this thing can be recycled."
Sumo instructed Lao Zhang to put all the infected bodies into the store to calculate the revenue and expenditure ratio.
The result is quite acceptable at the moment.
The recycling price of a wolfdog in the game store can buy almost one-third of the weapons.
The corpses of eight large and small wolfhounds can be recycled for just enough to buy three weapons.
If it is just to make up for the loss, it is a huge loss. Even if the previously crudely crafted weapons are replaced with forged weapons, it cannot make up for the reduction in quantity.
However, if the currently scarce food supplies are used as transaction intermediaries, and the food that can be exchanged for a wolf dog is used to purchase weapons, then the recycling price of a wolf dog can reach three weapons!
Now these eight wolf dog carcasses can buy enough supplies to feed eighty people for a day.
Earn blood!
However, this is calculated based on the previous ratio.
Now that there are exchange shops and the next autumn harvest, the price of food will definitely continue to drop.
If we can't find a way to reduce weapon losses by then, the offensive and defensive battles with the infected will still become more and more difficult.
"It's not the pollution of the power of destruction, but the conflict of forces between destruction and vitality."
Somo thought secretly.
He said that pollution was just his subconscious thought, but now that he thinks about it, it is actually the result of the power of destruction escaping.
Adam once said that starting from the death tide disaster, the power of destruction will no longer accumulate in any form.
The same is probably true for these infected bodies that carry the power of destruction.
If you want them to die completely, you have to find a way to eliminate the power of destruction in their bodies.
And using vitality to hedge is the simplest and crudest way.
"Other than that, what other way is there?"
Just as Sumo was thinking about it, the sound of guards shouting again came from the gate of the village.
"The second wave of enemies is coming!"
The monster that emerged from the black mist this time was no longer the swift wolf dog before, but a three-headed spider.
Its body is about the size of a calf, and the pairs of huge compound eyes on its front make one's scalp tingle.
Including the hair on the limbs, it is as long as an adult's forearm, and it is scary when blown by the wind.
"Is this a shot?"
A group of people look at me and I look at you, but no one dares to get involved.
The main reason why they still had the courage to attack the wolf-dogs with cold weapons was that they ignored the wounds. This was not uncommon.
But such a huge mutated spider is unheard of and unseen.
Who knows if it can spit venom or if it has other special abilities.
"Get out of the way, I'll do it!"
The monsters that appear in the early stages of the Death Tide, no matter what their appearance is, will not be too strong.
Naturally, Sumo would not let go of such a good opportunity for testing, and immediately stepped forward, shocking all the guards.
"Isn't Boss Ji the military advisor of our territory? Are all military advisors so fierce now?"
"What are you doing standing still? Hurry up and take cover. You're just standing here waiting to die!"
"Boss Ji dares to step in. You are all afraid of a hammer. Aren't you just spiders? Who hasn't trampled hundreds or thousands of them to death?"
"Damn it, Boss Ji is hiding everything. His skills are no better than ours."
Before he finished speaking, the spider above him was stabbed with a sharp stone spear by Somo and black blood started to pour out.
A burst of green smoke drifted past, and as the stone spear turned into fly ash, the big spider staggered and fell down dead.
"No, this is much better than us!"
The guard who spoke patted his thigh and realized that the spider only looked scary in appearance and was actually worse than a wolf-dog. All fear disappeared, and he charged forward with a weapon and howling.
Including Lao Zhang, just now he was thinking about how to boost the morale of the army.
Now that Sumo was taking the lead, the bald man excitedly picked up his weapon and rushed forward together.
How could a two-headed spider withstand being hacked by dozens of steel knives?
As if they were venting their anger, a group of people quickly chopped the spider until black blood flowed and pieces were everywhere.
After finishing the chop, a group of guards laughed loudly at first, and then they all sat down on the ground panting heavily.
Why are you so tired?
Sumo was a little surprised. After taking a closer look, he immediately discovered new changes.
The weapon that would have been contaminated by destruction before was actually not damaged at all after cutting down the spider this time!
Whether it is a steel knife or a steel fork, the cutting edge is still bright and shiny.
What's going on?
Sumo's heart was filled with questions until an hour later, the third wave of impact came again.
It's a bunch of mutant hyenas!
Facing familiar creatures, the guards had no fear this time.
In addition, Lao Zhang has promised that the killer can get 60% of the materials exchanged from the store.
Before Somo could step forward to set an example, a group of people excitedly rushed forward and hacked the hyena to death.
Soma stood behind and took the initiative to open the Eye of True Sight for overall observation.
Unexpectedly, this look would actually make him see something.
Unlike before, when the guards joined forces to fight the enemy, the blades of their weapons actually glowed with a faint white light.
This white light cannot be detected by the naked eye, and one has to open the eye of true seeing to see it.
When the opposing black power of destruction covers the white light, both will vaporize at the same time.
This also makes the weapons protected by the white light not subject to any corrosion!
"In the past, the vitality contained in the weapon was used to offset it. Now, the vitality derived from humans is used to offset the destruction, so the weapon is not damaged."
"It can still be like this, it can still be like this!"
The destruction and pollution of a single entity can be offset by the vitality released by human beings!
Sumo's eyes lit up, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and faintly caught a hint of inspiration.
Before this, he had never thought about the fundamental source of the special survival point, and only made some guesses about how it came into being.
Now it seems that the special survival point absorbed and transformed by the system comes from here?
Human beings need to first have a common goal to pursue, gather beliefs, and promote vitality and connection.
After completing this goal, the vitality of the connection will escape, and then it can be captured by the system as a survival point?
Two questions appeared in Somo's heart.
He immediately became excited and realized that if this was the case, he would definitely gain points.
No, it’s the possibility to quickly obtain a large number of special survival points!
"Give it a try, if you can make a lot of money!"
"Special survival point, this is more helpful than other survival points."
Somo took a deep breath, eliminated distracting thoughts, and planned to try the simplest elimination test method.
Before this, the main reason why he stayed in the Boulder Territory was to gain more survival points.
Now I have finally found a glimmer of possibility from the disaster, and I can’t let it go no matter what!
Soon, on the first day of the disaster, under Somo's care and leadership, the Boulder Territory successfully withstood the disaster.
As the ultimate disaster, 'Death Tide' is just a code name for the nature of the disaster. Not the ultimate disaster in every game process will have this name.
Just like the previous seven ultimate disasters, their names are all different, and their arrival forms have also changed.
With only one common denominator, the power of destruction will no longer accumulate.
The ultimate disaster currently experienced by players on the earth has inherited part of the rules of the previous death beast tide, causing all major territories to be regularly impacted by the destruction of infected bodies.
The manifestation is what the Boulder Territory has experienced. A warning of destruction appears at a certain location in the territory, and then a steady stream of infected bodies appear and impact the territory.
Given the size of the boulder territory, the game gives a reminder that you only need to resist forty-nine waves of impact in the first month.
Calculated in this way, if you spread it out every day, it would only be less than two waves.
The nine waves of offensives on the first day also determined that there would be no more shocks in the next few days.
As for the Tianyuan Territory, as the lord Sumo also received prompts from the game panel.
Tianyuan Territory needs to withstand a total of 499 waves of offensives in the first month.
However, with the huge reserve of firepower, the ninety-nine waves of offensive on the first day ended faster than that of the Boulder Territory.
It started at eight o'clock, and the clearing was completed before 8:50. It was truly a one-sided massacre.
Early the next morning.
Eight o'clock.
Sumo was eating breakfast when suddenly a thought occurred to him, and the system panel automatically opened and appeared in front of him.
He quickly switched to the daily report panel and saw the changes in the special survival points.
Originally, less than 5% of the small balls were accumulated in a few days and a half. However, there was a huge leap in just one day yesterday, and the accumulated number reached a terrifying 18%!
The growth rate reached 13%, which was converted into points, a full 260 points.
"It's done!!"
Sumo was so surprised that he almost dropped the bun in his hand to the ground.
The watery bright white liquid ripples back and forth in the small ball at the special survival point, which is very pleasant.
According to the point rules, the more than 200 points redeemed are already equivalent to the previous purchasing power of 3,000 points!
And considering the fact that special survival points can be used universally, the actual value must be far more than 3,000.
However, correspondingly, he did not do anything earth-shattering yesterday.
In addition to leading a group of people to repel the attack of the death tide, he also led the territory to repair two defense facilities specifically against the beast tide.
Can this give more than 200 special survival points?
"It seems that my guess was right!"
Sumo relaxed a lot after looking at the daily newspaper panel.
The sources of the other three survival points have been determined, but the source of the special survival points has not yet been verified.
Now, we have finally tested the complete access and method.
This special point actually comes not only from people, but also from beliefs.
When you open the Eye of True Sight and lead everyone to repair defense facilities.
The unprecedented unity connected every heart together. Sumo could see traces of brewing white energy appearing on everyone's heads. Together, they looked like a big umbrella covering the village.
At that moment, everyone had the same goal.
Stay alive until the end of the game.
And as the person who facilitated all of this, the system gave him the rewards he deserved.
In other words, this is the reward given to him by all the villagers!
As for why it was not discovered before.
When he was in Tianyuan Territory, Sumo was afraid of exposing his identity and causing too many survivors to come over, so he kept many things out of the public eye and left them to the professionals.
For example, when building a territory, it is handled by multiple departments such as the Engineering Department, Construction Department, and Logistics Department.
And these people assigned the tasks layer by layer to a certain construction team.
Such a simple mission did not gather a common belief and goal. Now I think it is probably this reason that led to the inability to obtain survival points.
This also prevented Somo from discovering this strange phenomenon and failing to obtain a large number of special survival points.
Now that he had finally caught the opportunity, Sumo was filled with full expectations.
It is not convenient for human Su Shen to show his face.
But Boss Ji is different. Boss Ji can show off all his methods in a high-profile manner.
As long as it rises fast enough, no one will doubt it.
Even if you have doubts, there is no way to verify your conjecture.
